From the Cubs Brickyard: (Chicago, IL) - “So how about those playoffs, huh?” northside resident Tim Beckwith asks the cashier as his area Walgreens.
“Yeah, it was a tough one. There’s always next year for our Cubbies, though,” the cashier responds.
“Sure. Sure. You know, though, that the, um, White Sox lost in the playoffs, too,” Beckwith says casually as he takes his bag and strolls out the door.
So it has gone the last week for Beckwith, a Cubs fan. Ever since the Cubs lost to the Dodgers in the NLDS, Beckwith has been surprisingly chipper. He’s been happy to chat with anyone and everyone he comes across.
Read the rest of the story for what he has to say about the White Sox...

Really the scrubs division winner had 2 million people in the streets? I must have missed that one. Did all the fans in the street, not at the ball park have something to do with wrigley field being so dead **** quiet during game 1?
